2006 Accord - V6 / 5 speed / 4 door - VA

I know folks are a fan of these and just spotted one outside DC, NMNA

Fantastic specimen there.  I worked at a honda store for a little bit when these were around. Such a nice vehicle. 

How's rust in that area? Something to be concerned about?

Do these need the timing chains replaced at xxx miles or run "forever"?

V6, so this one has a timing belt. Every 7 years or 105k

It's super appealing. If timing were different I'd be trying to do a fly and drive, as this is pretty much what my wife and I want to have.

keep in mind, this thing is like ~10mins from Dulles airport (IAD).  So, fly-in-drive would be super easy.

crusty?
VA uses salt.  But, it only happens ~3-4times per year.  7 tops.  There might be some rust, but it won't be anything apocalyptic.  Worse than Georgia?  Yes.  Hellish like Ohio?  Not even close.
